BTW, it looks perfect on your table and fits well among other objects:-)

Good evening Alex
Thanks for compliments, and appreciations
I'll take on my account your comment about the type of steel for the blade
may be the scabbard is newest than the blade, but at that moment the hilt also ...
the decor for;
- the hilt
- the locket
- bottom tip
is exactly identical ... judge by yourself ... what should be my thought
and in the same time the leather has some scratches, apparently due to use, it's notartificially grown old
by the way, what you call a "table" is the top of a ... gothic chest of 15th century .. LOL
